  • Patent number: 9600401
    Abstract: The invention relates to a computer system that may include a processor, an accessibility API, a GUI, and a test module. The test module may use the accessibility API for analyzing GUI elements of the GUI and for automatically identifying GUI element features and inter-GUI-element dependencies. The test module may use the GUI element features and inter-GUI-element dependencies to generate a graph. The test module may traverse the graph and analyzes the GUI element features assigned to each currently accessed node or said node's child or sibling node. Thereby, the test module may identify predefined GUI element patterns in the graph and in the GUI. In case a matching GUI element pattern was identified, the test module may automatically identify one or more test routines associated with the identified GUI element pattern and automatically perform the one or more identified test routines on the GUI.

  • Patent number: 7603403
    Abstract: A method and system for providing client locale information to a server in a distributed computer enterprise. When a client generates a request to a remote server, the client's locale and time zone information, known as the international context, is associated with the request. The server then processes requests from the client according to the internationalization context. The client's international context is propagated to successive servers that further service the client's request.

    Abstract: A method and system for managing client locale information to a server in a distributed computer enterprise. When a client generates a request to a remote server, the client's international context (e.g., locale and time zone information) is associated with the request. The server then retrieves an internationalization management policy and processes requests from the client according to the internationalization context that is configured by the internationalization context management policy. The internationalization context is propagated to successive servers that further service the client's request.
